R&B singer Cassie is expected back on the witness stand Friday in her ex-boyfriend Sean “Diddy” Combs' sex trafficking trial, with prosecutors insisting cross-examination finish by the end of the day over concerns that the pregnant Cassie is near the birth of her third child.
Cassie has been testifying in the Manhattan courtroom since Tuesday about Combs forcing her to have sex with male escorts. Prosecutors said in an overnight letter to the judge it seemed defense lawyers were intent on making Cassie to return to the witness stand on Monday, and they were worried there was a risk of a mistrial if she went into labor over the weekend.
